Hi folks! Love the game, but couldn't help but notice quite a few paradoxes. For example:
1) In the main timeline, before anything is flipped, George McFly works for Biff, as he did at the beginning of the first movie...yet is still an honored author, as he was AFTER the timeline was changed in the first movie.
2) It's possible to have Doc Brown be commited in 1983, and yet still murdered by Libyan Terrorists at a mall in 1985.
3) Even if George and Lorraine never kiss and Lorraine marries Biff, Marty and his offspring are all still born with the same personality (the 2015 timeline cards).
4) Even if Doc is killed in 1985 and therefore doesn't go back to 1885...leaving Marty with no motivation to travel back there either...it's still possible for a pie-throwing stranger to save the blacksmith's life.
Anyhow, just a few funny items we found. Any I missed?

That first one has bugged me a little bit. Anyway, I reasoned out a way to kinda-sorta handwave it. Even though the C-3/George McFly Honored card says George McFly receives an award, it doesn't say he gains any confidence from the experience. Basically, George has always had the built-in potential to succeed as a writer, but unless he confronts Biff in 1955, he's never able to shake the self-doubt he harbors, and does not go on to write his 1985 novel, A Match Made In Space. It's messy, sure, but for me it works.
IIRC the third paradox is actually observed in BTTF 2, since Biff begins his time voyage while Marty and the Doc are going off to retrieve Jennifer, and nothing seems to change immediately due to the interference in time.
As to the other two, your guess is as good as mine.
